New retail insurance agency empowers entrepreneurial agents with the authority to bring creative insurance solutions to business owners in niche industries.

Lake St. Louis, MO (PRWEB)March 10, 2011

Many of the entrepreneurial qualities shared by the owners of cutting-edge professional service firms are also evident in a new team of insurance agents charged with finding appropriate business insurance for industries with unique risks. The Rhino Insurance Agency, comprised of a dedicated and experienced team of specialty insurance producers, is focused on professional liability insurance and executive protection for industries that other retail insurance agencies shy away from. Rhino agents can also provide complementary standard commercial, property and casualty insurance to these niche businesses.

According to Dwight Stuckey, one of five Rhino Insurance Agency owners, the new retail agency was created to meet the needs of certain high-tech and highly specialized professions which often have trouble finding business insurance tailored to their risks. “Technology companies, architects and engineers, marine artisans, and companies in emerging environmental sciences each have their own set of unique insurance needs,” he says, “but the typical insurance agent does not always have access to appropriate insurance programs or feel comfortable making recommendations for them. Rhino Insurance will be focused on helping these businesses find the coverage they need.”

Stuckey says Rhino agents are selected for their ability to connect with clients on a personal level, and each agent is empowered to make decisions in his or her clients’ best interest. “You don’t hear the words fiercely loyal used together very often, but that is the type of person who will excel at the Rhino Insurance Agency,” Stuckey says. “Rhino agents speak the language and offer the technological solutions that today’s business owners expect,” Stuckey says. “Rhino is the kind of player every business owner wants on his or her team.”

Stephen Marks, Rhino Insurance account executive, says the specialty programs available to him are well-respected insurance programs that give him a competitive edge. “I’m representing well-known insurance programs for industries I am familiar with and passionate about, including marinas and boat repair shops, technology consultants, architects and engineers, and companies involved in ‘green’ energy programs,” Marks says. “Each of these programs is well-supported with advertising and marketing, and the agent training available to me is second to none. Add to that my ability to sell High Value Home insurance, personal insurance and other general business insurance to these same business owners, and I can offer a powerful suite of insurance solutions through Rhino.”

Rhino Insurance Agency is currently seeking to grow its team of producers, and offers competitive pay structures for both “captive” full-time agents and independent consultants. Full-time producers will be paid hourly, and are also eligible for commissions and bonuses based on monthly production. Independent producers earn competitive commissions, and are eligible for a year-end bonus. Entrepreneurial agents will also be encouraged to develop and oversee their own “family” of producers. “We are looking for aggressive people to train and motivate agents,” Stuckey says. “We value independence, loyalty and perseverance from Rhino team members, and offer a variety of ways each Rhino can take charge of their career.”

Rhino Insurance currently conducts business with many of the most highly-respected carriers in the commercial insurance industry, including ACE, The Hartford, Travelers, Chartis, Chubb and Zurich. It also offers access to health and life insurance through leading underwriters, including Assurant, Aetna, United HealthCare, Blue Cross / Blue Shield, and life insurance from Brokerage Unlimited. Rhino Insurance is licensed in the continental United States.
